Do you have an evic? If so step till a blank screen and hold reset for 5 seconds. This will trigger a screen showing when each of the four wheel transmits it's info to the bcm. Check see which one is not triggering if the four are all triggering then it's your spare.

I ran all to my libby and tried... didn't work :? any more tips? are the batteries on the sensors replaceable?


The batteries are glued and coated with an insulation to prevent moisture. If you have the tools and very precise hands, you may be able to replace them and reseal for moisture. I don't think it's worth to be honest since that would be a lot of work for 30-50 bucks a pop.

Yep. I just need a way to pinpoint the sensor to be replaced. My EVIC does not show independent values.

If I were you, I would rip that electronic junk apart and drive with the light, set the steering wheel so it won't be visible. Less things to worry about. I mean honestly, side of the annoyance of the light, how hard is to check the tire pressure when temperature fluctuates drastically or once a week? Lol.

Tire stores have to dx this all the time. Call around to find one that has the scanner and will do it for a reasonable price.
